Complex Catheter-Based Structural Heart Reconstruction in a Patient With Tricuspid Atresia and Bjork Palliative Conduit.

ABSTRACT: Björk conduit failure is a common reason for reintervention after a Björk modification of the Fontan procedure. We describe a first performed in human percutaneous procedure for the treatment of a failing Björk circuit in an adult with congenital heart disease and complex anatomic features. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Energetic performance analysis of staged palliative surgery in tricuspid atresia using vector flow mapping.

Project description:BackgroundStaged palliative surgery markedly shifts the balance of volume load on a single ventricle and pulmonary vascular bed. Blalock-Taussig shunt necessitates a single ventricle eject blood to both the systemic and pulmonary circulation. On the contrary, bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt release the single ventricle from pulmonary circulation.Case presentationWe report a case of tricuspid atresia patient who underwent first palliative surgery and second palliative surgery. Volume loading condition was assessed by energetic parameters (energy loss, kinetic energy) intraoperatively using vector flow mapping. These energetic parameters can simply indicate the volume loading condition.ConclusionVector flow mapping was useful tool for monitoring volume loading condition in congenital heart disease surgery.

Two heterozygous mutations in NFATC1 in a patient with Tricuspid Atresia.

Project description:Tricuspid Atresia (TA) is a rare form of congenital heart disease (CHD) with usually poor prognosis in humans. It presents as a complete absence of the right atrio-ventricular connection secured normally by the tricuspid valve. Defects in the tricuspid valve are so far not associated with any genetic locus, although mutations in numerous genes were linked to multiple forms of congenital heart disease. In the last decade, Knock-out mice have offered models for cardiologists and geneticists to study the causes of congenital disease. One such model was the Nfatc1(-/-) mice embryos which die at mid-gestation stage due to a complete absence of the valves. NFATC1 belongs to the Rel family of transcription factors members of which were shown to be implicated in gene activation, cell differentiation, and organogenesis. We have previously shown that a tandem repeat in the intronic region of NFATC1 is associated with ventricular septal defects. In this report, we unravel for the first time a potential link between a mutation in NFATC1 and TA. Two heterozygous missense mutations were found in the NFATC1 gene in one indexed-case out of 19 patients with TA. The two amino-acids changes were not found neither in other patients with CHDs, nor in the control healthy population. Moreover, we showed that these mutations alter dramatically the normal function of the protein at the cellular localization, DNA binding and transcriptional levels suggesting they are disease-causing.

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair in a Tricuspid Atresia Patient With Potts and Glenn Shunts

Project description:Our patient was a 50-year-old woman with tricuspid atresia who had undergone palliation with a Potts shunt to the left pulmonary artery as an infant and a classic Glenn shunt to the right pulmonary artery as a young child. Under general anesthesia, she underwent transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of the mitral valve for severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.) Central Illustration

Endovascular IVC Reconstruction in an 18 Year Old Patient with Subtotal IVC Atresia.

Project description:IntroductionInferior vena cava (IVC) atresia is an uncommon venous anomaly that is an under recognised cause of unprovoked acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in young adults. The purpose of this case report is to highlight endovascular IVC reconstruction as a feasible treatment option, particularly in challenging cases when other therapeutic modalities have failed.ReportThis is the report of an 18 year old patient with near complete IVC atresia and a longstanding history of exertional nausea of unknown aetiology, who presented with extensive acute DVT. He was treated successfully by endovascular IVC reconstruction after failing initial anticoagulation and thrombolysis. Symptom resolution and venous patency were maintained at 2.5 year follow up.DiscussionIVC atresia is an important aetiology to consider in a young patient presenting with unprovoked DVT. Endovascular stenting can restore venous patency and is feasible even when there is near complete IVC atresia. This case was uniquely challenging in the length of atretic IVC that was reconstructed and also highlights an atypical clinical presentation of IVC atresia.

Transcatheter Tricuspid Repair for Tricuspid Regurgitation After Heart Transplantation.

Project description:A 67-year-old patient with history of heart transplantation was referred for symptomatic severe tricuspid regurgitation. Diagnostic workup showed chordal ruptures on the septal and anterior leaflets, most likely related to endomyocardial biopsies. Given the high surgical risk, the patient was treated percutaneously, with good results persisting at 3 months. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
